Jay Ion Wheelchair Cushion

Price isn't all that matters when you are considering buying Jay Ion Wheelchair Cushion, excellent customer service is priceless!

Comfort, convenience and anti-microbial are three words that describe everything great about the JAY Ion cushion. The Ion delivers all three of these features using the latest cushion technology: Aqua-guard zipper, anti-wicking seam thread, silver impregnated X-Static® anti-microbial stretch fabric, and reticulated foam. On the surface, it looks like a simple skin protection cushion. Under the hood, it's a high-tech machine. Wt capacity: 300 lbs. Widths of 22-24" have weight capacity of 500lbs.

Features:

The JAY Ion's inner cover features specially coated anti-wicking seam thread to prevent moisture from wicking through the seam holes. This same type of thread meets US Military specifications.

The inner cover also features specially coated Aqua-guard zipper designed to repel moisture. Its zipper uses a reverse coil to lock the fluid resistant coating sections together. Result: the inner foam stays dry and odor free.

The inner moisture-resistant polyurethane-coated cover is made with Lycra®. This remarkable material allows the cover to easily stretch and conform to the individual's shape. Without the ability to stretch, there is always the potential for surface-tension pressure to develop under the user's ischial tuberosities, which can increase the potential of a tissue breakdown.

Because the inner foam is not the only place odors are a problem, the Ion's outer X-static® cover is impregnated with silver. Silver helps eliminate bacteria and also binds with ammonia and denatured proteins to accelerate the odor reduction process.

The firmness of each JAY Ion cushion is determined by the user's width. It makes little sense for a lightweight user to sit on a stiff cushion, or a heavy user to sit on a overly soft cushion. For this reason, narrow JAY Ion cushions are less firm, and wide JAY Ion cushions are more firm.

The Ion wheelchair cushion features a dual-layered foam base for a combination of structural support and comfort. For optimized immersion for each individual, the foam's firmness is determined by the cushion width, which directly corresponds with client weight.

Visco™ Memory Foam Top Layer

The Ion's top layer of soft, Visco memory foam wheelchair seating conforms to each individual and distributes weight over a larger area for pressure reduction and maximum comfort.

Innovative Dual-Cover System

For convenience and protection, the JAY Ion features a dual-cover system. The water-resistant inner cover is easy to clean and includes anti-wicking seam thread and Aqua-guard zipper for foam protection. The machine-washable, stretch outer cover utilizes naturally anti-microbial, silver-impregnated X-static® fiber. A layer of 3DX spacer fabric promotes airflow for additional skin protection.

The Ion's outer cover now includes a handle for easy removal, zipper cover flap for a clean look, waterfall seams for enhanced comfort, and a QR scan code on the label for quick access to this web page.

Reviews

We’re a couple, married and both quads. We use manual chairs and live independently. We have owned our SmartDrives (we own two) for over a year. When we first saw the SmartDrive units, we were intrigued. We each have been quads for 30+ years, both have had shoulder surgery, and we love these things. Going to a full-on electric chair for us is overkill, but these give us the option to essentially “clip on” power assist when we need it. We had stopped going to the theater and night on the town because there was too much pushing. Now we’re often out catching a show or concert and after the show we wait until the aisle is clear and these push us easily up the steep carpeted exits.
We took these on a two-week vacation and were all over downtown Chicago for three days on a single charge. The riverfront in St. Louis? No problem. At home, we live in a semi-rural neighborhood. We’re always going over to one neighbors or another and often that can be up to a half mile, uphill. It’s so ni...
